Hydrangea wings/ fluttering in the spring winds/ yesterday's remnants - haiku Thanks for your appreciation, Gail
Having seen several pretty hydrangea photos lately here on Flickr, I decided to try my hand at it as I rode my bike past a collection of them. In developing the photo, I aimed for almost a glowing effect. It might've been easier to achieve that in Photoshop, but I did what I could with Lightroom instead.

And a prior attempt of my own, from my 2020 photo-a-day project: www.flickr.com/photos/beryllium/50387647432/
August is the month for gorgeous Hydrangeas. Lace-cap varieties are outstanding for their complex blooms. I love their starry centers.

The Hydrangeas did very well this year, although in general the heads are smaller probably due to the hot summer.
Now some have been dried and form a lovely dash of colour in the room.
Hydrangea, the name, comes from the Greek words "hydro" or water, and "angeion," or vase = water vase, they prefer a lot of water.
A very ancient plant, found in fossils going back thousands of years.
Flower lovers will know that there is a flower language.
Every sentiment is expressed in one form or another by delicate blooms.
Of course, even the experts disagree on the "true meaning" of many flowers and most have different meanings to different people.
So, while all flowers convey thoughtfulness and love, a gift of flowers for a special someone will always create its own personal meaning, too.
HYDRANGEA - Thank You for Understanding.
Have a wonderful day and thank you for your comments with all my heart, M, (*_*)

Back to my series of frozen flowers. I personally have been feeling stuck, and this series is a way for me to explore that theme. Getting immersed in a project is what I need right now and hopefully it helps me move forward or at least inspired. How do you get yourself unstuck?
Thank you everyone so much for sharing your quality photos which is a great way to see and keep in touch with the world from home. Also for your kind comments and favours which are much valued.

Hydrangea, common names hydrangea or hortensia is a genus of 70–75 species of flowering plants native to Asia and the Americas. It belongs to the Hydrangeaceae family. ‘Hydrangea’ is derived from Greek and means ‘water vessel’, which is in reference to the shape of its seed capsules. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably Korea, China, and Japan. Most are shrubs 1 to 3 meters tall, but some are small trees, and others reaching up to 30 m by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous. Flowers are produced from early spring to late autumn; they grow in flowerheads most often at the ends of the stems. 13466
